357.0. "Memory allocation/deallocation
" by MOVIES::FORSTER () Tue Jan 03 1989 08:15
According to the books I read, when a task finishes with a TERM() system call
then any memory allocated to the task should be deallocated by the system.
The problem I'm facing is that if I PEXEC () a task from my debugger then
any memory that task uses is not deallocated when it exits back to the debugger
I assume that since the debugger invoked the task by PEXEC () then any memory
the task allocates is also 'owned' by the debugger. Thus the memory does not get
deallocated when the task exits.
Anyone got any firm information on this ?
Also, I got a copy of the 'PEXEC cookbook' from a note in this or the earlier
ATARI notesfile. It hinted at all sorts of interesting stuff to come in
a later edition. Does anyone know if a later edition actually appeared ?
Dave.
